Famous people are quoted all the time to inspire or motivate us: "It is not fair to ask of others what you are not willing to do yourself" (Eleanor Roosevelt). Family members will give advice, and maybe the quote is not perfect, but you attribute that thought to them: "Find a job you enjoy and you'll never work a day in your life" (Leon "Daddy Bill" Raper). And there are other quotes, the ones that have been mishandled so often that no one has a clue if it is true or not: "It is better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt" by Abraham Lincoln, Mark Twain, Albert Einstein, or Groucho Marx (lots of contention about who owns this one).
As a high school teacher, my goal is to give you 100 quotes that you can use in your classroom (or wherever) to start conversations, or to inspire and motivate your audience (maybe to make them reflect a bit on their life), or quite possibly, this book is for you and you alone. It's up to you...your life, your choice...but since you only get one life, make it count for good! As one of my coworkers says, "Bad people make bad decisions, even good people can make a bad decision, so let's be good people that make good decisions" (Dan Styles).
